The buzz around OnePlus' upcoming flagship device has started. After OnePlus officially confirmed about the OnePlus 5, today an alleged GeekBench benchmark of the smartphone reveals that the device might be more powerful and faster than Galaxy S8.
GSMArena has obtained screenshots of OnePlus 5's GeekBench scores from a "very credible source." The OnePlus 5 will reportedly be using the same Snapdragon 835 processor that runs on the available Galaxy S8. According to the leaked screenshots, the OnePlus 5 scored 1963 points in single-core tests and an impressive 6687 points in multi-core tests.
The leaked OnePlus 5 secured the top spot in the GeekBench 4 list. The other flagship Android phones Galaxy S8 and Sony Xperia XZ Premium has gone a bit lower scores than OnePlus 5. The Galaxy S8 has received a score of 1929 in single-core and 6084 in multi-core tests. The Xperia XZ Premium got 1943 and 5824 points in single-core and multi-core tests, respectively.
The leaked screenshots of benchmark show that OnePlus 5 will run OxygenOS on top of Android 7.1.1 Nougat. The only smartphones it lagged behind in Geekbench tests are the 5.5-inch iPhone 7 Plus and the Exynos 8895 variant of the Galaxy S8 Plus. However, that's not a huge surprise since the Exynos version of the Galaxy S8 Plus has proved to be faster than its Snapdragon 835 counterpart in previous benchmark tests.
The OnePlus 5 is expected to boast a 5.5-inch Quad HD display. As reported by India Today, the flagship would feature an edge-to-edge display similar to the Galaxy S8. OnePlus would also rearrange the antenna lines to give the phone's back panel a seamless look.
OnePlus 5 is rumored to pack 6GB RAM and 64GB of internal storage, which can be expanded further via a microSD card slot. Other leaks hints that device could also come in an 8GB RAM model with 128GB of built-in storage.
